Pros and cons of Contre Jour app for iPhone and iPad

Contre Jour app good for

It has the same kind of "Tim Burton" aesthetics as "The world of goo". I only have a minor problem with the way you handle the earth, it is not very accurate. Overall it deserves five stars.

The game is very good, especially if to play it with music. Super!

This game is the most beautifully designed and developed app Ive ever seen!!! Am not a game friend usually but this one is worth it 1000%. Wanted to play something before I go to sleep, and this one is perfect. A must have for every single artist, grafic designer, musician & game developer!!! Worth much more than what I paid. Good luck

Super innovative and relaxing! Im totally savoring each level!

Unique, stylish, challenging and addictive. What more could you ask for?

Gorgeous visuals, equally gorgeous music, addictive gameplay. Transcends the usual puzzle game genre to become something almost haunting.

Some bad moments

Im glad the game is playable again but the ads are just too annoying. This game used to be my favorite one on the iPhone but the experience is ruined with those ads. App deleted.

Its a good game, but it crashes every five minutes or so. Extremely frustrating if youre about to beat a level and it dies.

Excellent game with amazing art. The music goes so well with the game to make for a great experience.

Greatest game to ever fit on an iPhone screen. And the music is incredible. It would be worth it just for the music

I love the sound track but i wish you could get the gamecenter achievements after you already had them done because now i cant complete them even though i beat the entire thing when it first came out

This has to be my favorite game of all!!! Its so unique! I live the whole look and how it works. Kudos for making a beautiful and fun game!!!
